Rustic Wedding Chic by Whispering Pines

 Today's wedding is another beautifully shot wedding by Orchard Cove Photography and although we don't have a ton of details I think these two photos offer enough to get your wedding thoughts flowing. I love this first picture of the bride with her bridesmaids in front of these tall wonderful trees!

One my favorite photographers and is local here in Connecticut shot today's wedding which I think has a great All American look and feel to it. This wedding has a simple hometown feeling to it but has all of the class of a big east coast wedding and the blue and green color theme is really great looking!

Over the past year or so we have spent time talking about moss and how great it can look at a wedding. If you have had some hesitations about how great moss can look I think this new inspiration board may just convert you. Look how magical it looks when mixed in with candlelight and how awesome does it look around the front door! I don't think there is anything you can't do with moss!

 I hope everyone had a good holiday weekend and enjoyed some fun and sun. Today I thought I would show off an idea for a wedding inspiration board that really can be applied to most seasons. This is one of the boards I used when I was getting married since I loved the grey color and the babies breath flowers. Think how many ways (and seasons) that this inspiration board could fit into your wedding ideas!

 A country wedding often times can take on several different meaning. After all, the idea of "the country" is unique to each person. Someone might think that being in the Hamptons is "the country" while another person may think the rustic mountains of Vermont or New Hampshire are "the country". The great thing about "the country" is it can mean whatever you want it to mean and so can a country wedding. Some country weddings maybe rustic while others maybe preppy and sporty... the point is, whatever the country is to you...enjoy it!

I came across this picture today while searching the web and I was really taken with it. One of the things I think I liked the most was that it offers a different approach to how you can display your wedding flowers. I love that this picture shows old tea cans as the vase. This picture started me thinking about all of the different items you could choose to show off your flowers. Also, I wanted to mention that some of our products are featured in the new Cottages & Bungalows Magazine- the July/August Issue! If you see the magazine you should really check it out since it has so many great pictures and ideas for the cottage!

Yellow can be a wonderful color for a summer wedding and one of the reasons why it is so great is because you can mix it with so many other colors for the perfect wedding color scheme.

Below is an example of a dark purple color scheme and a lighter purple!

When thinking about rustic weddings one thing that always come to mind is the idea of using birch or another type of wood as part of the decor. I found a wedding which took place in Vermont that I think shows how great an earthy birch wedding theme can be... and how great is this invitation which is mounted on real birch from a wedding in Colorado.

Many times brides try to stay away from the color pink for the their wedding color because sometimes it can come off as juvenile or something that should be at a sweet 16 party... but when pink is done right it can look fresh, summery and simply amazing. I picked a few pictures that I thought showed off how great pink can be when done right!
